Marjorie Burton Memorial Fund Aims To Continue Work
The sudden death of Miss Marjorie Orton in the Anglican diocese of Perth sparks a memorial appeal by the Girls' Friendly Society Caravan Committee. They seek funds for a new caravan named The Marjorie Burton Caravan, a cathedral memorial, and an endowment to provide books for country children. Contributions may be sent to the rector or treasurer Mrs. Heygate. Separately, London reports Dutch kitchen gardeners growing carrot beetroot hybrids to combat Holland's food shortage, with factories for grass processing and vitamin enrichment amid Nazi interference.
